Story

After getting healed by the doctor, Nigel West Dickens formulates a new scheme to get money. On the way to the Farm, Nigel tells his plan. Marston will pretend to be a farmer and intermingle with the crowd. Nigel will use Marston as a "random test subject". Marston will impress the crowd, and Nigel will sell his medicine. Marston must fight a farmer, shoot long distances and use Dead-Eye Targeting so the crowd will buy Nigel's 'elixir'.

Mission Details

You meet up with Nigel in Armadillo. He gets you to drive his wagon to Ridgewood Farm while he explains what he wants you to do. Just before you get to the Farm he drops you off so you are not seen showing up together. Approach Nigel as he goes through his pitch. He will "randomly" pick you out of the crowd to sample his tonic.

Tips

To aid in targeting the skull there is a "shimmer" to highlight its position. Use it so you can hit it.

Trivia

After this mission, if the player walks over to West Dickens and aims at him or takes other aggressive action, he will try to escape or shoot back if fired upon. He is invincible, however, and cannot be killed.

If the player misses the skull on the house, a cutscene will play where John will look upset and Nigel will tell the crowd "He is still getting used to his new vision!"

An unnamed character with John Kelby's Character Model can be seen in the crowd.

Using the Social Club cheat, Punch Out, will cause the player to fail the mission while fighting Aquila as it kills NPCs in one punch.

Bugs

While attempting to shoot the hat out of the air, it is possible to lose the ability to draw your gun. If it is drawn as you gain control of Marston and you quickly holster it, you may not be able to draw it and complete the mission. It appears reloading is the only remedy.

Sometimes, another Bert Venters model can be walking past, getting on with his business on the farm, while another model is the one standing in the crowd.

Sometimes when Aquila pulls his gun, another gun can be seen already floating in the air in front of him.

Blagh!

"This man is a fraud!"

"Well, no harm in trying one bottle, I suppose..."

"I think that went kind of well, don't you?"

"I'm just glad that my normal job involves either chasing after cattle or murderers, not the likes of you, mister."

"Now if you'll excuse me, I'd like to say my goodbyes and head on back to the real world."
